We're thrilled you're here! Please take a moment to introduce yourself—we promise we don't bite! I'm Phillip Heck, the founder of Startup Labs on Skool. I've started and helped start several businesses. We all know there's no guidebook for this stuff—they don't teach it in school, and finding help can feel like searching for a needle in a haystack. That's why I created this place: to help business-minded folks like you grow, scale your business, and find the direction you need. A little about me: I'm from Arkansas, USA. I grew up loving the outdoors in a tiny town in the middle of nowhere. In April 2024, I took the leap and quit my full-time corporate job to focus on my businesses. Right now, I have three: Startup Labs, Sidekick Creative Company, and Sidekick Collective. Please post and tell me a bit about yourself and what you'd like to see here. Let's build something great together! Please answer this poll below! 👇🏼 What would you like to see first?

The team at Sidekick Creative has been hard at work to make this community better than ever. As of today, we’ve shared all the tools and software we currently use at Sidekick Creative Company. You’ll also find our first resource, Building a Digital Presence, available under the Classroom tab. It’s completely FREE to view and download, and we’re already working on more tools, resources, and content to help you succeed. Here’s our vision for the New Year: Sidekick Creative started with one mission—helping small businesses grow. Too many small businesses struggle to find affordable marketing solutions or simply don’t know where to start. This year, we’ll continue providing free resources, effective marketing solutions, and guidance to help small businesses thrive all through our wonderful community, Startup Labs. We’re also focused on building a stronger community where entrepreneurs can connect, get real-time feedback, and grow together. Thank you for being part of this journey. We’ve got exciting plans ahead, and we’re thrilled to have you with us. 2025 is the year to BUILD! - The Sidekick Creative and Startup Lab Team
